OpenAI’s ChatGPT ads just went cost-per-click, and the AI advertising war has its battle lines

OpenAI converted the ChatGPT advertising model from CPM to CPC (cost per click) and entered into direct advertising competition with Google and Meta.

  • OpenAI changed ChatGPT advertising from a CPM (cost per impression) to a CPC (cost per click) model.
  • CPC bids range from $3 to $5, and the minimum ad spend has been reduced from $250,000 to $50,000.
  • This is because the CPM, which was $60 at the beginning of launch, fell to $25 in 10 weeks, and is a measure to ensure the sustainability of the advertising revenue model.
  • OpenAI is targeting advertising revenue of $2.5 billion in 2026 and $100 billion in 2030, but a loss of $14 billion is expected this year, raising questions about its corporate value of $852 billion.
  • Ads appear with a "sponsored" label at the bottom of ChatGPT responses and are shown to users of the free and $8 Go plans. Ads are not displayed to paid subscribers (Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, Education).

ARES: Adaptive Red-Teaming and End-to-End Repair of Policy-Reward System

ARES presents a framework to systematically discover and mitigate systematic vulnerabilities in RLHF, which are the core of LLM alignment, thereby significantly improving the safety robustness of LLM.

  • RLHF is important for LLM alignment, but it suffers from a vulnerability where an imperfect reward model (RM) may fail to punish unsafe behavior.
  • Existing red team methods focus on policy-level weaknesses and overlook systemic weaknesses where LLM and RM fail simultaneously.
  • ARES uses “safe mentors” to dynamically construct adversarial prompts and generate malicious and safe responses, exposing dual vulnerabilities.
  • We fine-tune the RM through a two-step recovery process and utilize the improved RM to optimize the core model.
  • We demonstrate that ARES improves safety robustness while maintaining model functionality across several adversarial safety benchmarks.

Open AI version ‘Ralph Roof’ appears... ‘Autonomous goal’ function added to Codex CLI

OpenAI added the 'autonomous goal' function to Codex CLI, a coding tool for developers, allowing AI to carry out long-term goals on its own and continue coding work.

  • The '/goal' function has been added to Codex CLI, allowing AI to autonomously perform coding tasks without continuous instructions from the developer.
  • To achieve the goal, AI repeats the entire process of planning, writing code, testing, and debugging, and continues work until the goal is completed, stopped, or budget is limited.
  • This function is evaluated as taking the autonomy of AI agents to the next level, and signifies the evolution into autonomous development agents that perform actual development tasks.

[GD Net Korea] 1. (Summary based on English original text)

  • - [GD Net Korea] 1.
  • - Introduction: Who should determine ‘harm’?
  • - “Everything depends on what ‘harm’ is considered.” - Ronald Dworkin, ‘Is There a Right to Pornography?’ In 1981, in ‘Is There a Right to Pornography?’, American legal philosopher Ronald Dworkin reviewed the discussion on regulation of pornography in the report of the British Williams Committee and considered ‘harm’, which is often presented as a justification for restricting freedom. He pointed out that the ‘condition’ itself is not clear enough.
  • - He believed that whether an act can be prohibited or restricted by law is not determined solely by the empirical judgment of ‘whether there is harm,’ but rather depends on the interpretive and normative judgment of ‘what should be considered harm.’
  • - In fact, Dworkin analyzes that if harm is narrowly understood only as physical damage or property damage, it is difficult to justify legal regulations such as existing urban planning and restrictions on the use of natural resources. Conversely, if harm includes mental discomfort or inconvenience, the conditions for harm are broadened to the point of being almost useless in political theory (Dworkin, 1981).

Scripts Through Time: A Survey of the Evolving Role of Transliteration in NLP

A comprehensive study of the importance and evolving role of transliteration in overcoming the “script barrier” in cross-language transfer learning in the field of NLP.

  • Transliteration is useful in NLP to address script barriers that impede cross-language transfer learning.
  • This paper provides a comprehensive survey of the main motivations, integration methods, evolution and effectiveness of transliteration.
  • Transliteration provides benefits in a variety of environments, including processing code-mixed text, leveraging language family relationships, and increasing inference efficiency.
  • We provide researchers with specific recommendations for selecting and implementing appropriate translation strategies based on specific language, task, and resource constraints.

Investigating Counterfactual Unfairness in LLMs towards Identities through Humor

A study examining the counterfactual unfairness of social assumptions and identities that LLMs internalize in their learning data through humor.

  • LLM's responses to humor reveal internalized social assumptions in the learning data.
  • We investigated the unfairness of model responses to humor by changing the identity of the speaker and target.
  • The framework was built through three tasks: rejecting humor creation, inferring speaker intent, and predicting relational/social influence.
  • The results of the experiment found a consistent relational imbalance in which privileged speakers' jokes were more often rejected, judged as malicious, and scored higher on social harm.
Notable Quotes & Details
  • Jokes are rejected up to 67.5% more often by privileged speakers
  • Up to 64.7% judged more malicious
  • Social harm was rated up to 1.5 points higher on a 5-point scale.

Syntax as a Rosetta Stone: Universal Dependencies for In-Context Coptic Translation

A paper proposing a new in-context learning approach using syntactic information to support Kot language-English low-resource machine translation.

  • Low-resource machine translation requires a different approach than high-resource languages.
  • We propose in-context learning using syntactic augmentation through Universal Dependencies parsing for Kot language-English translation.
  • To the existing work using bilingual dictionaries, we added parsing expressions, English syntax specification, and guidance on difficult compositions.
  • Although syntactic information alone is not as useful as dictionary-based explanations, combining syntactic information with retrieved dictionary entries achieves significant performance gains regardless of model size, achieving state-of-the-art in Côte-language translation.
